ESTONIA - 2 € Euro commemorative coin
2022 - Ukraine and freedom. COINCARD
The
two-euro coin dedicated to Ukraine and freedom features a girl as a symbol of
tenderness, protecting a bird in her hand. The design also features an ear of
wheat.
Eesti Pank started to prepare for the
issue of the coin in April. The Estonian Academy of Arts, where Ukrainian art
students could continue their studies this spring, played a major role,
organising a design competition among them, which Daria Titova won. At the
beginning of May, the Supervisory Board of the central bank approved the design
and decided also to use the text Slava Ukraini on the coin to symbolise the
independence and resistance of Ukraine. After that, the design of the coin
needed to be approved by the European Commission and the EU member states. At
the same time, Eesti Pank prepared for the production of the coin cards and
two-euro coins.
